True. I was taking another look and I might only want the side covers if they come in white, and maybe brown please for us CF guys?

If you mean is there a bundle that comes with the Hikaru VF-1J AND GBP armor similar to the valk with FAST packs set, then no, there is not.

That is just cold.... I went to all that trouble to save it on my HD last time it was used and now we aren't allowed to use it at all? You're killin me here...

Hahahaha! Im watched the 'Optic Nerve' clip and actually started laughing at how cheesy and overdone it was. Haha, it's worse then B movies. B movies are amusingly bad, this was just embarrasing.

This sucks. He's going to rape yet another franchise... granted I certainly wasn't playing MGS for the story, more the storytelling and gameplay, but still, why let him kill again?

www.bigbadtoystore.com Joel is a great guy and they ship real fast.

At least one, probably two.

That's exactly the problem I was posting to warn about, except when I did it, it didn't jump the hook, it snapped it clean off. And 1/1, not at all, BBTS is and always has been my first choice in online toy purchasing. I got a response last night within about ten minutes of sending my email about the missing parts offering store credit or a replacement when they restocked.

Ignacio, it's those four screws on the back onf the grey part. Just note that it is still tricky to get off because they white part of the armored canopy cover sits on a long flat tab to hold it on there, it will sound like it's snapping when you take it off but it isn't, it's a very shallow tab.

That is a really fantastic pic. It's like the big three of classic 80's cartoons remade in amazing new toys.

That's really nice looking. have you considered adding a glossy coat to the blue to match the real thing?

That picture is amazing but I would much rather it were a Gundam or a Destroid or soemthing more 'realistic' .... still absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I figured it out the second time around.... it's also really important to have them aligned properly with the holes, because otherwise it wont fit in right and do exactly what it did. Suffice to I don't think they will ever be comming back out though... I just hope BBTS gets a restock soon so I can get my shoulder missiles.

That's the GP-01FB.... I just got mine today, and the box is friggen huge! Too bad I have to wait until April for my birthay to open it. *tear*

I got mine and it is amazing. I had a few issues tho, so make sure you guys check out the thread I started about it before digging into yours. There is a delicate piece, and I did not recieve the smaller missiles for the shoulder pods.

Notably except for the CF GBP, because it is a well known fact that when you become a CF pilot, along with your dignity, your manhood is also taken from you.

Hi all, I just got my 1/48 GBP today from BBTS and love it. While putting it on my valk tho, I noticed two issues that I wanted to warn you guys about. The first is a delicate piece. The chest missile mounting plates move forward when you open the doors so the missiles stick out more. The only problem is that this is worked by a very small Y-shaped bar inside the chest. When putting the missiles in teh chest, you need to be extra careful that you push them in perfectly straight with the hole or they won't go in easily and the force will transfer into the plate, pushing it back into the Y bar and snapping off the tab. I did this by accident and had to open up the chest, remove the missiles plates, and drill a hole in both parts of the tab to pin it back onto place, now much stronger than it was before. It's not a horribly flawed piece, just not the strongest thing in the world, so use caution. Second is a much more irritating thing. My GBP was missing the bag of smaller missiles (style "B" in the instructions) which go in the shoulder missile pods. BBTS has offered to send me replacement parts when they restock, but until then, I have no missiles for the shoulders of my armor. Otherwise, this an absolutely amazing toy, and probably my favorite Yamato product ever for being so gorgeous. I really can't wait for Takatoys to make a sticker sheet and for someone to recast the new DYRL hands because they are simply beautiful. Just a friendly warning for those of you cracking open your new GBPs.

hate to double post but this is a whole new thing with pics.... These are some WIP shots of my second RX-78G with a much subtler weathering and much better damage and more greeblies. I used a bunch of the extra vents and tow-holds and added some rivets. I am really really happy with it so far.

I dunno...I still think that sanding is the safest and least destructive method...

WOW. That is gorgeous. Great weathered job.

Puppy sh*t

Haha, I have that CF GBP kit... why does it have a 1 on it???

Yeah... hasbro had better not dumb down the designs. I usually hate Hasbro stuff. This blows.

Oh man! Too true... Mystic River was aweful. I was so bored that I woulda left before halfway if my dad hadn't brought me... and it sure didn't get better. I can't figure out why it got all those awards either.

BASTARDS!!! They had better release all of the announced 2006 Legends waves, because if I don't get my Original Armor Ironman I will go on a mad killing ramage. This is an outrage... ToyBiz for Marvel has been putting out one of the greatest toylines in history, where was the problem?
